I agree with Cruiser with one small exception. Carnival (and other cruise lines) will occasionally offer a promotion which is open to "new bookings only". Cancel and re-booking is not an option with these because their computer system is set up to detect that. Otherwise if the price drops before final payment, Carnival will simply adjust the rate because it is much simpler to do that than cancel and re-book...a lot less paperwork. If the price drops after final payment Carnival will often offer either an upgrade or somethimes on board credit for the difference but not a refund of the difference. Again, a lot less paperwork.
